Job description

In addition to having excellent technical skills, you have a keen interest in the latest technologies and have a feel for user experience. You'll be responsible for building exciting applications and implementing flows and mock ups as provided by UX and design teams. Apart from having the ability to write fast and clean code with great attention to detail, you also come up with solutions and suggestions for improvement, as you will be working closely with product development and marketing teams.
At Mindvalley we want to develop an ecosystem of apps to dominate the personal growth market. We develop modules and libraries which are shared by multiple apps.
Being one of our talented mobile developers, you'll have an opportunity to learn and grow, and be a key part of creating our products. Check out the Play Store (ow.ly/2rt030nVi7S) for our latest releases.
At Mindvalley, you are more than just a developer, you are someone who understands that a great app must do great things, yet is simple and intuitive. You are pixel-perfect, knowing that a pixel to the right is not merely a pixel to the right. You understand that an organised code with well-applied design patterns will make a difference. You are fascinated about technology and eager to learn everything you can, applying the coolest and most amazing techniques there are. You add a "magic touch" that will dazzle your users.
Due to the unique environment that Mindvalley has in terms of having its own ecosystem of applications that support the business, working with us in a technical role is a great challenge. We generally look for attitude over aptitude when it comes to technical skills, a history of proven execution and excellent root cause analysis problem solving skills are things that we value highly.
We predominantly build apps with an nginx, Unicorn, Ruby, Redis and PostgreSQL architecture on Linode so experience with any of these will be valuable to us.
The technical ecosystem is both interesting and broad covering systems that deal with: Payment processing (both check-out and backend)
Media streaming (live and repeated)
Serving websites to large audiences (high concurrency)
In-house customer service tools
Financial reporting
Shipping & logistics
E-mail handling (sign-ups, cohort analysis etc)
Authentication, identification & user data collection/analysis
In-house Textile based CMS for large number of sites
Any technical role will provide a good mix of development work, systems thinking, problem solving, business analysis with a large dose of teamwork. Engineering Culture
We run functional teams based on the SCRUM methodology and are a fairly Agile environment, with 2 week sprints and teams with a minimum of 2 developers (preferably 3) plus a Platform Owner. Sprints cannot be interrupted and work is planned out well in advance to keep stress down to a minimum.
We have a focus on scalability, stability and code quality and we use tools such as Circle-CI and Code Climate to help with that.
Other stuff we do/you will encounter:
Line by line code reviews for every pull request on Github, this maintains code quality and keeps everyone in the loop & learning.
At least 2 people working together on every project (collaborating not pairing)
Full test coverage for everything important
Constant learning (we have learn days, and unlimited book budget, conference/training budget etc.)

Life at Mindvalley

At Mindvalley, we grow our employees into extraordinary individuals by exposing them to leading edge ideas in human transformation. But here, we don’t just work on ourselves - we take the whole world to new heights with us.
We often hear from people that today’s education failed them. So Mindvalley partners with legendary teachers to fill these gaps and create disruptive new ways of learning. We do this in the real world by inventing a radically new form of college called Mindvalley U., and we do this online via Mindvalley Academy and its innovative new forms of digital learning like Quests.
Ultimately, we’re more than an education company, we’re a community of 2 million people across 100+ countries dedicated to becoming the most extraordinary versions of ourselves. And we are using these new found abilities to help push humanity forward.
No matter what role you fit into, you’ll be playing a crucial part in transforming lives across the planet.

Learning the freshest, most innovative ideas in the realm of education and personal growth. Being part of festivals like A-Fest happening in exotic locations worldwide, meeting and creating with legendary authors and teachers, working from an award winning designer office with colleagues from 40+ countries -- but most importantly, taking advantage of the many opportunities here to grow into the best version of yourself you can be -- in mind, body, spirit and your ability to have an impact on the world.
